a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

This geisha is a detail from a painting of mine. I find Asian style very inspiring, if I can even say "Asian style" because  Asian culture encompass a multitude of various styles but I hope you know what I mean. Generally speaking I have always been attracted to the east. Designers as well have often searched for inspiration in the east. On other note, today I'm sharing some black and white photographs. Black and white are colours that go well with everything and especially so one with another. This evening it is bw that inspires me.     There's something really appealing about the simplicity of black-and-white images. Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Kiša pada kao iz kabla, a meni nedostaju sunčani dani. Gledam neke stare fotke i naletim na ovu. Majica koju sam kupila u terra nove davno i doradila tako da sam na nju ušila puno perlica. Ugodan dan vam želim:) It's raining cats and dogs and I miss the sunny days. Browsing trough some old photos, I stumbled onto this one. I made this t-shirt ages ago, or perhaps better to say re-made it since I bought in in terra nova and sewed some beads on it. Have a nice day :)

  the answer is simple- just wear somehing warm above it:)odgovor je jednostavan, samo obucite nešto toplo preko:)  zar nisu ovi konji prelijepi? Aren't these horses (in the background) beautiful?

 My solution for cold weather- dress warmly- fur (fake or not), leather jackets, caps, comfortable boots:) leather jacket- vintage cap/fur- a gift jeans- amadeus (croatian brand) boots- bought at famous gypsy open market near Mostar

Zadnjeg dana studenog zaista je bilo studeno. The last day of November was freezing. The word for November in Croatian language can be translated as "freezing", but really the past month was everything but cold. However, yesterday the cold finally kicked-in... To bi bilo sve. Zadjeg dana studenog je konačno zahladilo pa mi je drago da sam se toplo obukla. Krem francuzicu sam kupila na placu:) Ova majica na štrumfove je dječja iz Konzuma. Ostalo sve imam odavno, crne tenisice, torba i kišobran Borsa. Pozdrav :)

 I like the way this tourist combined colours, a splash of colour on a rainy day is always welcome. On the following photo,  we can see the black elegance. What do you like more, all black or lively colours? Što vam se više sviđa, skroz crno ili živahne boje?  young fashion- moda mladih  Poslovnjaci pretpostavljam. Uglavnom, sviđa mi se vidjeti muškarce u odijelima.- I presume this two are bussiness people. Anyway, I like to see man in suits.  I like the outfit that the women in the middle in wearing, it looks very comfotable and the lovely scarf makes it elegant. = Sviđa mi se što je žena u sredini obukla, izgleda jako udobno, a zbog lijepog šala i elegatno.  I like this jacket, it looks very warm= Sviđa mi se ova jakna, izgleda jako toplo.  young man fashion  interesting pants- Zanimljive hlače  On this rainy and cold day most people opted for comfortable shoes as they should= Ovog kišnog i hlanog dana v...

So, this is what I wore day before yesterday when the weather was warm but rainy. Jacket (pepita pattern)- secondhand shop Split, white dress- some shop in Split , shoes and umbrella Borsa, shawl - mama's closet:)
